UN Condemns Israeli Settlement Expansion as War Crime Amid Escalating Gaza Violence
The United Nations has issued a strong condemnation of Israel’s West Bank settlement expansion plans, labeling them a war crime, as the conflict in Gaza continues to claim lives. Reports indicate at least 21 Palestinians have been killed in recent hostilities, with a Gaza NGO highlighting the urgent need for evacuation for approximately 15,000 sick and wounded individuals.
Adding to international concerns, Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich is reportedly set to greenlight the controversial E1 settlement plan, a move critics warn is designed to effectively eliminate the possibility of a Palestinian state. This development comes amidst broader Israeli proposals for ‘full control’ of Gaza, which many perceive as a precursor to a new Nakba, raising alarm bells across the international community.
